Spinning Slash | Elden Ring Wiki

Just let us parry it from good god

Submit

Based on the salty comments below, I've been sleeping on this ash lol

Submit

Yet another L2 abuse.

Submit

If you use this on the Nagakiba you have never touched a woman in your life

Submit

does anyone know how much stance damage each individual hit does? because i’m assuming that 33 is both the main hit and the follow up

Submit

You spin me right round baby right round like record baby spin me right round. (On a serious note if they made this parryable it would be perfectly fine).

Submit

just stunlock anyone and take 80% of their health by pressing 1 button with hyperarmor very balanced ability

Submit

really fun punish opportunities w/ this on margit/morgott

Submit

Without true combos, what would a souls game have been

Submit

Use this on a cold nagikaba with my mage. Great way to discourage players in pvp from closing the distance.

Submit

Buncha poke weapon users in here mad this is the one thing more brainless than their full poise + spears + hold forward on the analog stick builds. Keep walking directly into L2+L2+L2 spam frenzy poke weapon sweaters

Submit

Ah yes, the lord of the dissapointing ash of war on the boss weapon, a classic

Submit

Imo, it should either be parryable regardless of FP, ice lightning version excepted, or have less\not have hyper armor. Or both. Like, I understand why special version on dragon halberd is not parryable, but why tf is this not parryable when you slap it on other weapons, there's literally zero reason for it not to be.

Submit

Just a simple fisherman, my catch is tarnished

Submit

Braindead hyperarmor abuse just like storm stomp. People only spam this whenever they are about to get hit and always win trades, it's beyond stupid after patch 1.10

Submit

Why tf can lance use this, that **** will not slash

Submit

Counter to this weapons with hyper armor recommend using maliketh destined death ash of war. See if they like getting spin killed back while also on fire

Submit

Brain dead shitter crutch instakill poise **** AOW. Needs nerf or make it parryable at least

Submit

Tested on Archer Knight at Avenue Balcony

18 strength, 80 dex, 80 arcane
Occult : 983 damage
Keen: 919 damage
Lightning: 828 damage

18 strength, 22 dexterity, 80 arcane,
Occult = 893 damage

Conclusion : I thought dex aow would be vastly better on Keen and I was wrong. For 11 more levels, Occult Nagakiba offers 30 less damage on AOW and 14 less AR (584 AR on Occult 18/22/80 while 598 AR on Keen 18/80) but more bleed (85). Spinning slash is totally viable as Occult. It is improved if you have ***h stats at 80 (631 AR on Occult 18/80/80)

Submit

This ****'s straight up cancer since the poise nerf

Submit

Did slower/heavier version of this art always true combo? From what I remember, the one on light weapons did but the one on heavier weapons didn't. Haven't been able to roll out of the heavier one lately, though, since patch 1.10

how do i do the repititive spinning that completely destroys enemies

Submit

Why is this one so lame compared to the DS3 version?

Submit

This weapon skill is the most frustrating thing in the game to me. Not for any good reason, I'm just mad that they neutered its animation since DS3. In DS3 you could buffer the second input and you would seamlessly transition into the follow-up, it was one of my favorite weapon arts in the game back then because of how fun the triple spin looked, it looked like you genuinely built up a ton of momentum with the first two spins that was carried into the final downward smash. Now there is that awkward pause in between the first swipe and the follow-up. Went from my favorite weapon art animation to my most despised ash of war with one minor change. I do like the dragon halberd variant though, however I think that weapon would benefit from its skill having a different name so the chance of someone overlooking its (technically) unique ash of war would be reduced. (also would be cool if there were more than like 2 lightning weapons in the game but hey beggars can't be choosers I guess)

Submit

Wait, you can slap this onto greatswords!?

Submit

Where did the albinauric cosplay in the video clip come from? I thought the helm wasn't part of a set but in this clip the character has a pot belly.

Submit

So... parryable?

Submit

This skill may seem basic, but do not underestimate its usefulness. When used with faster-attacking weapons, it will stunlock most enemies with all three hits for massive damage and status buildup. Invaluable on bigger enemies who normally wouldn't be stunned by light attacks. I've been loving it with a cold uchigatana.

Submit

I'm late, but does anyone know if this is parryable?

Submit

For people like me who somehow always end up surrounded by enemies even when being careful, this and Sword Dance are quite handy. Just remember that you're not limited to carrying and upgrading only one weapon. Especially if you put in the time to get the bell bearings for the different smithing stones. Endurance increases carrying capacity and you'll be needing a good amount of Endurance anyway, so don't worry about it.

Visions of soul of cinder

Submit

Does it combo on pole arms like it does on curved swords?

Submit

Useful early PvE skill, capable of mob clearing, damage bursting and catching off low-flying enemy.

Submit

the default ash of war on WAY too many weapons. sadly overused

Submit

Not only is it great mechanically, it looks cool as hell.

Submit

imo probably the most underrated ash of war. On weapons with long range like Nagakiba it feels downright busted sometimes, yet I never see anyone using this. Hits 3x very quickly so its great for building status effects

Submit

2x this on Nagakiba stuns knights in capital while this on grave scythe DOES NOT stun the nights. And I was just playing crit build with grave scythe, such a shame.

Submit

does this cause scarlet rot? because this ash of war comes with the rotten crystal sword so i just wanna know

Submit

When Bernthal moves to the mansion how do you purchase the ash of war?

Submit

Works really well on long range weapons that apply status effects. Cold Nagakiba goes hard with this for example as it quickly applies frost + bleed with decent poise and range

Submit

Literally switched from the default "Unsheathe" to this for Uchi (and Nagakiba) and never look back. Not only it's great for crowd control but also great for staggering larger enemies.

Submit

For easy cheese apply to either of the scythes. Will chew through enemies and apply bleed many times over. I killed Starscourge Radahn before he could even get to his second phase. (lvl 60 rn)

Submit

cool technique
